Default Peripheral Device Selection Based on Location
First Claim
1. One or more computer storage media having stored thereon multiple instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a computing device, cause the one or more processors to:
- obtain a current location of the computing device;
access a mapping record of default peripheral devices to locations to identify a default peripheral device corresponding to the current location of the computing device; and
return the identified default peripheral device as a current default peripheral device for the computing device.

Abstract
In accordance with one or more aspects of the default peripheral device selection based on location, a current location of a computing device is obtained. A mapping record of default peripheral devices to locations is accessed to identify a default peripheral device corresponding to the current location of the computing device, and the identified default peripheral device is returned as a current default peripheral device for the computing device. Additionally, an identification of a peripheral device to be a default peripheral device can be received. A mapping of the current location of the computing device to the identified default peripheral device can also be stored.

17. A method for displaying a user interface on a computing device, the method comprising:
-
displaying a first portion including one or more options allowing a user to select whether a default peripheral device is not to change based on a location of the computing device or whether the default peripheral device is to change based on the location of the computing device; and displaying a second portion including one or more options allowing the user to select a particular one of multiple peripheral devices to be a default peripheral device for each of multiple locations. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
